The properties of the absorbing states of non-equilibrium models belonging to the conserved directed percolation universality class are studied. We find that at the critical point the absorbing states are hyperuniform, exhibiting anomalously small density fluctuations. The exponent characterizing the fluctuations is measured numerically, a scaling relation to other known exponents is suggested, and a new correlation length relating to this ordering is proposed. These results may have relevance to photonic band-gap materials.

Disordered hyperuniformity is a description of hidden correlations in point distributions revealed by an anomalous suppression in fluctuations of local density at various coarse-graining length scales. In the absorbing phase of models exhibiting an active-absorbing state transition, this suppression extends up to a hyperuniform length scale that diverges at the critical point. Here, we demonstrate the existence of additional many-body correlations beyond hyperuniformity. These correlations are hidden in the higher moments of the probability distribution of the local density, and extend up to a longer length scale with a faster divergence than the hyperuniform length on approaching the critical point. Our results suggest that a hidden order beyond hyperuniformity may generically be present in complex disordered systems.
We consider the scaling properties characterizing the hyperuniformity (or anti-hyperuniformity) of long wavelength fluctuations in a broad class of one-dimensional substitution tilings. We present a simple argument that predicts the exponent $alpha$ governing the scaling of Fourier intensities at small wavenumbers, tilings with $alpha>0$ being hyperuniform, and confirm with numerical computations that the predictions are accurate for quasiperiodic tilings, tilings with singular continuous spectra, and limit-periodic tilings. Tilings with quasiperiodic or singular continuous spectra can be constructed with $alpha$ arbitrarily close to any given value between $-1$ and $3$. Limit-periodic tilings can be constructed with $alpha$ between $-1$ and $1$ or with Fourier intensities that approach zero faster than any power law.
We analyze nonequilibrium lattice models with up-down symmetry and two absorbing states by mean-field approximations and numerical simulations in two and three dimensions. The phase diagram displays three phases: paramagnetic, ferromagnetic and absorbing. The transition line between the first two phases belongs to the Ising universality class and between the last two, to the direct percolation universality class. The two lines meet at the point describing the voter model and the size $ell$ of the ferromagnetic phase vanishes with the distance $varepsilon$ to the voter point as $ellsimvarepsilon$, with possible logarithm corrections in two dimensions.
We study diffusion of hardcore particles on a one dimensional periodic lattice subjected to a constraint that the separation between any two consecutive particles does not increase beyond a fixed value $(n+1);$ initial separation larger than $(n+1)$ can however decrease. These models undergo an absorbing state phase transition when the conserved particle density of the system falls bellow a critical threshold $rho_c= 1/(n+1).$ We find that $phi_k$s, the density of $0$-clusters ($0$ representing vacancies) of size $0le k<n,$ vanish at the transition point along with activity density $rho_a$. The steady state of these models can be written in matrix product form to obtain analytically the static exponents $beta_k= n-k, u=1=eta$ corresponding to each $phi_k$. We also show from numerical simulations that starting from a natural condition, $phi_k(t)$s decay as $t^{-alpha_k}$ with $alpha_k= (n-k)/2$ even though other dynamic exponents $ u_t=2=z$ are independent of $k$; this ensures the validity of scaling laws $beta= alpha u_t,$ $ u_t = z u$.

We consider driven many-particle models which have a phase transition between an active and an absorbing phase. Like previously studied models, we have particle conservation, but here we introduce an additional symmetry - when two particles interact, we give them stochastic kicks which conserve center of mass. We find that the density fluctuations in the active phase decay in the fastest manner possible for a disordered isotropic system, and we present arguments that the large scale fluctuations are determined by a competition between a noise term which generates fluctuations, and a deterministic term which reduces them. Our results may be relevant to shear experiments and may further the understanding of hyperuniformity which occurs at the critical point.
